Remediation Equipment
Environmental remediation equipment is used for the removal of pollution or contaminants from soil, groundwater, sediment or surface water in wells, sumps or trenches or from a brownfield site intended for redevelopment. The equipment uses an oleophilic/hydrophobic element which passes oil but repels water. A system is ‘passive’ when the equipment absorbs or containerises product in the equipment within the well. It is described as ‘active’ when it uses a pumping facility to bring the product to the surface. The process of remediation is often strictly monitored and regulated with regard to health and ecological risks.
At Van Walt we have a range of Remediation equipment to either rent or buy. It includes handheld VOC monitors (PID), absorbent socks, skimmers and pumps. We also provide Remediation Training, as an element of our highly regarded Environmental Soil, Groundwater Research & Remediation Training Course. This training is available as a stand alone module and includes:
-
- Introduction of soil and groundwater remediation
- Theory biological processes and degradation pathways
- Determination of biological potential
- Natural attenuation as remediation approach
- Background and experiences with aerobic remediation techniques
- Background and experiences with anaerobic remediation techniques.
